If a cleric lends a solidus in necessity, he shall receive it without usury

If a cleric has lent a solidus in necessity, on the condition of being paid back in wine or wheat at the time when it is supposed to be sold in the market, and the debtor has not the necessary supply, the cleric shall receive what he gave without any increase.

About the source:

In 516 the provincial council was held in Tarragona which at the time was ruled by the Ostrogothic king Theodoric (he acted as a guardian for the king of Spain Amalaric). The anomalous presence of two bishops is worth noting - Hector of Cartagena and Orontius of Grenada. Their episcopal sees were outside the province of Tarragona.
